When the system is deactivated:
ODN8069019
The ISG OFF button indicator illuminates.
If the message "Auto Stop is Off.
OIK057173N
Start vehicle manually", appears on the
LCD display with a beep sound, restart
the vehicle manually by depressing the
brake pedal with the vehicle shifted
to P (Park) or N (Neutral). For your
safety, restart the vehicle in the P (Park)
position.
Auto start
To restart the engine in the auto stop
mode
Release the brake pedal.
- When Auto Hold is activated, if you release the brake pedal, the engine will
be in the auto stop state. However, if
you depress the accelerator pedal, the
engine will start again.
The auto stop indicator () goes OFF on
the instrument cluster, when the engine
is restarted.
The engine is automatically restarted in
the following situations.
• The brake vacuum pressure is low
• The engine has stopped for about 5
minutes
• The air conditioning is ON with the fan
speed set to the highest position
• The front defroster is ON
• The battery is weak
• The cooling and heating performance
of the climate control system is
unsatisfactory
• The vehicle is shifted to P (Park) when
Auto Hold is activated
• The door is opened or the seatbelt
is unfastened when Auto Hold is
activated
• The EPB switch is pressed when Auto
Hold is activated
The auto stop indicator (
) blinks in
green for 5 seconds on the instrument
cluster.

Jump starting procedure
1. Position the vehicles close enough that the jumper cables will reach, but
do not allow the vehicles to touch.
2.

A
void fans or any moving parts in the
engine compartment at all times, even
when the vehicles are turned off.
3.

T
urn off all electrical devices such as
radios, lights, air conditioning, etc.
Put the vehicles in P (Park) and set
the parking brakes. Turn both vehicles
OFF.
ODN8A079022
4. Connect the jumper cables in
the e xact sequence shown in the
illustration. First connect one jumper
cable to the red, positive (+) jumper
terminal of your vehicle (1).
5.

Connect the o
ther end of the jumper
cable to the red, positive (+) battery/
jumper terminal of the assisting
vehicle (2).
6.

Connect the second jumper cable t
o
the black, negative (-) battery/chassis
ground of the assisting vehicle (3).
7.
Connect the o

ther end of the second
jumper cable to the black, negative (-)
chassis ground of your vehicle (4).
Do not allow the jumper cables to
contact anything except the correct
battery or jumper terminals or the
correct ground. Do not lean over the
battery when making connections. 8.

S
tart the engine of the assisting
vehicle and let it run at approximately
2,000 rpm for a few minutes. Then
start your vehicle.
If your vehicle will not start after a few
attempts, it probably requires servicing.
In this event please seek qualified
assistance. If the cause of your battery
discharging is not apparent, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized
HYUNDAI dealer.
Disconnect the jumper cables in the
exact reverse order you connected them:
1.
Disconnect the jumper cable fr
om the
black, negative (-) chassis ground of
your vehicle (4).
2.
Disconnect the o
ther end of the
jumper cable from the black, negative
(-) battery/chassis ground of the
assisting vehicle (3).
3.
Disconnect the second jumper cable
fr

om the red, positive (+) battery/
jumper terminal of the assisting
vehicle (2).
4. Disconnect the o ther end of the
jumper cable from the red, positive (+)
jumper terminal of your vehicle (1).

Emergency Situations
7-6
If your temperature gauge indicates
overheating, you experience a loss of
power, or hear loud pinging or knocking,
the engine may be overheating. If this
happens, you should:
1.
Pull o
ff the road and stop as soon as it
is safe to do so.
2.

Place the shift butt
on in P (Park)
and set the parking brake. If the air
conditioning is ON, turn it OFF.
3.

If engine coolan
t is running out under
the vehicle or steam is coming out
from the hood, stop the engine. Do
not open the hood until the coolant
has stopped running or the steaming
has stopped. If there is no visible
loss of engine coolant and no steam,
leave the engine running and check
to be sure the engine cooling fan is
operating. If the fan is not running,
turn the engine off.
WARNING
While the engine is running,
keep hands, clothing and tools
away from the moving parts
such as the cooling fan and
drive belt to prevent serious
injury.
4.
Check f

or coolant leaking from the
radiator, hoses or under the vehicle. (If
the air conditioning had been in use, it
is normal for cold water to be draining
from it when you stop.)
5.

If engine coolan
t is leaking out, stop
the engine immediately and call the
nearest authorized HYUNDAI dealer
for assistance.
WARNING
Your vehicle is equipped
with a pressurized coolant
reserve tank. NEVER remove
the engine coolant reservoir
tank/radiator cap or the drain
plug while the engine and
radiator are HOT. Hot coolant
and steam may blow out under
pressure, causing serious
injury.
Turn the engine off and wait until the
engine cools down. Use extreme care
when removing the engine coolant
reservoir tank/radiator cap. Wrap
a towel or thick rag around it, and
turn it counterclockwise slowly to
release some of the pressure from the
system. Step back while the pressure is
released.
When you are sure all the pressure has
been released, continue turning the cap
counterclockwise to remove it.
6.

If y

ou cannot find the cause of the
overheating, wait until the engine
temperature has returned to normal.
Then, if coolant has been lost,
carefully add coolant to the reservoir
to bring the fluid level in the reservoir
up to the halfway mark.
7.
Pr

oceed with caution, keeping alert
for further signs of overheating. If
overheating happens again, call
an authorized HYUNDAI dealer for
assistance.
CAUTION
Serious loss of coolant indicates a
leak in the cooling system and should
be checked as soon as possible by an
authorized HYUNDAI dealer.

Maintenance
8-6
While operating your vehicle:
• Note any changes in the sound of the
exhaust or any smell of exhaust fumes
in the vehicle.
• Check for vibrations in the steering
wheel. Notice if there is any increased
steering effort or looseness in the
steering wheel, or change in its
straight-ahead position.
• Notice if your vehicle constantly turns
slightly or “pulls” to one side when
traveling on smooth, level road.
• When stopping, listen and check for
unusual sounds, pulling to one side,
increased brake pedal travel or “hard-
to-push” brake pedal.
• If any slipping or changes in the
operation of your transmission occurs,
check the transmission fluid level.
• Check the automatic transmission P
(Park) function.
• Check the parking brake.
• Check for fluid leaks under your
vehicle (water dripping from the air
conditioning system during or after
use is normal).
At least monthly:
• Check coolant level in the engine
coolant reservoir.
• Check the operation of all exterior
lights, including the brake lights, turn
signals and hazard warning flashers.
• Check the inflation pressures of all
tires including the spare for tires that
are worn, show uneven wear, or are
damaged.
• Check for loose wheel lug nuts.
At least twice a year:
(i.e., every Spring and Autumn)
• Check radiator, heater and air
conditioning hoses for leaks or
damage.
• Check windshield washer spray and
wiper operation. Clean wiper blades
with a clean cloth dampened with
washer a fluid.
• Check headlamp alignment.
• Check muffler, exhaust pipes, shields
and clamps.
• Check the seat belts for wear and
function.
At least once a year:
• Clean body and door drain holes.
• Lubricate door hinges and hood
hinges.
• Lubricate door and hood locks and
latches.
• Lubricate door rubber weather strips.
• Lubricate door checker.
• Check the air conditioning system.
• Inspect and lubricate automatic
transmission linkage and controls.
• Clean the battery and terminals.
• Check the brake fluid level.
